Hello to all , I am the proud owner of my first mandolin a custom built left- handed Collings MF with 1 3/16 nut , ivoroid binding and gloss top. I have a tough time putting this instrument down and I have become addicted to learning and calling myself a mandolin player with pride, my guitars are getting a bit lonely since I have started mandolin but what goes around comes around. Here are a couple of photos. :mandosmiley:

Bob, that is one classy looking mandolin.

Hard to beat that! Bill's finishes and coloring are some of the best.
